Rd21: Parra v Titans GAME DAY thread 4/8/18

[strider]

He’s easily the best rake at the club, I’ll say it again it’s nuts he wasn’t in the top 30 this year.

Well he was 20 and never even played reserve grade for starters

 

[IFR33K]

That's a bit simplistic though. Like any other player it all depends on the price. Of course he's been good, but other clubs are seeing it too.

Would he seriously play anywhere else? He’s apparently sacrificed $$$ to come back to the eels. If there’s a decent offer on the table I can’t see him leaving unless it’s to a rival code.

Shut up.

Blind Freddie could see his service was the best at the club, let’s face it he didn’t have to be special to be an upgrade on what we had here.

Hineysight is a wonderful thing

Come on he was only 19 last year, and King finished the year strong, there wasn’t a spot at the time but BA did see his potential and gave him a development contract.

However, I think other clubs would be wary that his heart is at Parra and they may not get the same value out of him that we will. Therefore, his external value may not be as high as it should be.

He can competently pass both ways for a start, which is a nice change.

I am no fan of King, but even i would say his end to 2017 earnt him a contract

I cant justify our use of Smith as a starting hooker - but i also have no idea what technicalities there are

Mahoney also made 51 tackles, and only missed 3, which is a great effort for a bloke playing 80 mins for the first time in the NRL. One of those misses Brown actually caused by missing the player before.

He also doesn't look like he's going to go all kamikaze and potentially injure himself every time he goes into a tackle.

He certainly looks a tough little merkin

Watching on replay. We have no leadership, respect or cohesion. Our captain was binned. Watching Procter as well .half the player under Cam Smith. Has me wondering do we need a top shelf leader to be able to compete. Mannah is a joke of a leader.

Im guessing alvaro might be back

I would be tempted to put hayne wing - he did well roaming from wing last game ... salmon centre .... mahoney has proved he can go 80 ... alvaro into that 17, hoff out

TBH I was enjoying Gennings tonight and wished we had two of them. Then I see the injury list and the Hoff is back round 22.

Polar is Rnd24.

I thought about Hayne on the wing but decided it was too early for Salmon to start at center.

Do you think Hoffman will get picked ahead of French?
